=========
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10
Ubuntu 7.04
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.10:
xscreensaver 4.24-4ubuntu2.1

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart your session to

interrupt network connectivity.
